In total, there are almost 1,800 parking spaces available in the L’Aigüera, Tomás Ortuño, Mercado, Ametlla de Mar, Ruzafa and Cines Colci car parks.

Support for families and productive fabric
Toni Pérez has insisted that "since the pandemic broke out, the City Council has been coordinating aid and initiatives to serve the most vulnerable families and to contribute to maintaining the activity of the local productive fabric." "Our commitment has been, from minute one, to mobilize resources to serve the population and the productive fabric while it is still necessary," he added.
So far this year, around 8 million euros have been allocated to aid and initiatives, to which are added the income not received due to the suspension of the table and chair fee from March 14, 2020 until March 31 / 12/2022 or the reduction of the ICIO to 50% ”. To this will be added in 2022 the general reduction in the tax rate of the IBI and the Tax on Mechanical Traction of Vehicles, approved in plenary session on October 25 last.
The mayor has indicated that "now, with the winter season and the consequent reduction in tourist activity" and when the "regional administration and the Government of Spain" continue to "penalize with their policy of restrictions on the productive fabric and families, with a shopping basket, energy and consumption to the disproportionate rise ", Benidorm City Council considers that it is time to inject more resources to help the population and the business sector, in this case with an initiative of the that both parties benefit ”.
